@LBFlyawayhome Thanks for showing this pic. I imagine the book was a good distraction for children living in cities that were being bombed 1940-41.

@pastarchive Creepy.

@thewritertype You are brillant, thanks for making me laff

Water makes up more than 70% of the human body. And yet, even on the hottest day, we are still constrained by the absurd British social taboo against licking a stranger at a bus stop. Hoping to be out on bail later.

War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.

On June 8, 1949, George Orwell’s 1984 was published.

Written as a warning against totalitarianism, the novel imagined a world of constant surveillance, rewritten history, controlled language, and enforced loyalty to “Big Brother.”

More than 75 years later, its vocabulary—Big Brother, Thought Police, Newspeak, doublethink—still shapes how we talk about power, propaganda, and the loss of truth.

@SocialM85897396 She sounds like she actually wants to destabilise the country! Or maybe she's just a Reformist.

Hello @ChrisMasonBBC, there already is a timetable set out for the prime ministers' departure, its called a general election and only the public not the media get to choose when a prime ministers' time is up, its called democracy. #BBCNews

@BBCNewsnight Lewis Goodall is very annoying. Especially using his hands so much when he's talking. Best to just use mouth and brain for that.

This wasn’t a staged studio trick. This was London, 1953.

At Hammersmith Broadway, circus performer Lucia Muller carried her sister Gerda on her head to promote Bertram Mills Circus. Performing as The Chaludis, they turned a city sidewalk into a live advertisement no one could ignore.

@amw467 I agree, too many dogs, everywhere you go.

@Clainy6 @NadineDorries I agree Clainy, she talks rubbish, and deep down she is shallow.
